This book describes the basic principles underlying the generation, coding and transmission of speech and audio signals and reveals the latest advances in this area. Waveform coding and parametric coding of speech are described and the fundamental principles behind these methods are delineated. Examples of speech coding standards in use today and their practical implementation are discussed. The principles underlying speech enhancement and speech recognition are also presented, along with the latest recent advances in these areas.

Focuses on System Identification applications of the adaptive methods presented. but which can also be applied to other applications of adaptive nonlinear processes.

Covers recent research results in the area of adaptive nonlinear system identification from the authors and other researchers in the field.

This book describes the basic principles underlying the generation, coding, transmission and enhancement of speech and audio signals, including advanced statistical and machine learning techniques for speech and speaker recognition with an overview of the key innovations in these areas. Key research undertaken in speech coding, speech enhancement, speech recognition, emotion recognition and speaker diarization are also presented, along with recent advances and new paradigms in these areas.
